I only finished this book because I spent an Audible credit on it, and I did so by listening to it on 2x speed. Elin was an insufferable main character. The plot twists do not follow logically--I understand not wanting to be predictable, but the author made it way too complex for it to be enjoyable. And the resolution of the subplot about Elin's past was so disappointing.
Graphic: Murder, Torture, Gore, Medical trauma, Rape, and Death
Moderate: Death of parent
